Silver-Catalyzed Synthesis of Nitrogen-Containing Heterocycles

Silver-Catalyzed Synthesis of Nitrogen-Containing Heterocycles 

In the past decades, transition metal-catalyzed C-H oxidative coupling reactions have provided one of the most straightforward and atom-economical 

Mechanistically, they proposed that Ag first reacted with PhjPfO) to form the crucial active intermediate, which promotes the reaction. Worthy of note that this is the first time for the hydrophosphorylation of alkenes via silver salt to be catalyzed. 

Phosphorus-containing heterocycles have diverse biological, medicinal, optical, and electronic properties. In 2013, the Duan group [44a] and Miura group [44b] independently reported a silver-mediated C-H activation strategy for the
